"mommy! Look I'm just like the little mermaid!" Addy yelled as she splashed and jumped into the big hotel pool. Haley sat in a pool chair watching her. A smile escaped her lips when she saw her daughter laughing and having a great time. No matter what happened in her life, stress from work or fights with her husband Addy could always make her smile and she loved that.
"yeah your just like her." Haley leaned back against the chair running her fingers threw her hair, she understood that a victorious win of 96 to 72 deserved a fu party and a team of 20 something guys would throw one but what she hated was that Nathan acted like he didn't have a family, as she settled back down with her latest book she blamed herself I should have called first. She couldn't get into her book before the door to the pool area opened and a hung-over Nathan stood his white t-shirt was wrinkled and his hair was a mess.
"Haley." Haley looked up at him setting her book down on her lap. "can we please talk?"
"sure, hey Addy come here and have some goldfish I'm gonna go talk to daddy." Addy obediently got out of the pool. Haley figured that she shouldn't be completely mad at Nathan her visit was a surprise. She and Nathan walked out into the hallway.
"Haley please don't be mad if I had known you were coming I wouldn't have thrown the party. How long are you staying?" He asked Haley knew he was trying.
"until Monday morning."
"then come over and stay at my apartment I have a spare bedroom for Addy."
"I already paid for three nights here." Haley said seeing the disappointment in Nathan's eyes.
"okay well I have practice in 20 minutes maybe after tonight we can go out to eat like old times."
"sure we'd love that. Hey before you go can you talk to Addy she was up all night worried about you." Nathan nodded glad he was making progress. He walked into the pool area where Addy sat playing with her goldfish crackers wrapped up in a towel.
"Hey Addy." Nathan said cautiously knowing that Addy was a smart girl like her mom.
"Hi daddy." She said stuffing goldfish in her mouth.
"Mommy told me about the party you two were going to throw me, I'm really sorry I missed it."
"its okay your friends looked like they were having fun, I wish I could have some big people drink." She said hopefully as Nathan sighed not really wanting to talk about drinking with his 5 year old.
"well one day you'll be old enough."
"like when I'm 10?"
"try 50." Addy tried to calculate that in her head and just gasped at her dad.
"that's a long way away."
"I know." Nathan said wishing his daughter could stay 5 forever.
"did you and mommy have your own party last night?" Addy said shrugging her eyebrows up and down.
"what?!" Nathan said as Haley sat next to him.
"honey where did you hear that?!" A notorious bashful Haley asked now horrified.
"you and Aunt Brooke were talking you said after I went to sleep you and daddy were gonna have your own special party." Addy said completely innocent while shrugging her eyebrows again mimicking Brooke.
"oh my god." Nathan said rubbing his head it didn't help that he was hung-over and had a grueling practice in less than an hour but now he was talking about the birds and the bees with his very young daughter. Haley smiled and rubbed his back.
"honey no we didn't get to have our party but you me and daddy are going to go out to eat tonight! Won't that be fun" Haley said desperately trying to change the subject.
"yes it will I love going out to eat!!" Addy said excitedly.
"okay great well I have to go to practice but I'll pick you guys up around 7 does that sound good missy?" Nathan asked as he held out his arms for Addy.
"Yay!" Addy yelled as she ran into Nathan's arms. " I love you daddy." She said as she kissed his cheek it almost caught Nathan off guard because it was so childlike he almost forgot about all the other worries in his life.
"I love you too Addy." He said kissing her head back.
"okay ready watch this!" She said as she did a spin into the water.
"good job baby!" He said standing up and walking with Haley to the pool area door.
"I have told you since day one that Brooke is a bad influence on our daughter." Haley laughed.
"okay so I'll see you tonight?" Haley asked.
"yes, and maybe after Addy is asleep you can make up for that party I missed last night." He said seductively in her ear. He kissed her lips before walking out the door.
A/n (again)- okay so I have two different ways this story could go I have both of them written out now I just have to pick. Basically one is a good for Naley which would lead to probably three of four chapters of fluff but drama towards the end of the story. The other would be a bad road for Naley but and would have a few chapters of angst, drama, but fluff towards the end of the story. Okay so review and I hope to have the next UD up by Thursday or Friday.
